Hey everyone. I started the interest gauge thread for this MEP a while ago, and it seems that there are more than enough people interested in joining. So now, I going to officially start the signup thread.

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes,an aeroplane - Lenny Bruce is not afraid.Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn,world serves its own needs, dummy serve your own needs.Feed it off an aux speak,, grunt, no, strength,The ladder starts to clatter with fear fight down height.Wire in a fire, representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site.Left of west and coming in a hurry with the furies breathing down your neck.Team by team reporters baffled, trumped, tethered cropped.Look at that low playing!Fine, then.Uh oh, overflow, population, common food, but it'll do.Save yourself, serve yourself. World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed dummy with the rapture and the revered and the right - right.You vitriolic, patriotic, slam, fight, bright light, feeling pretty psyched.

It's the end of the world as we know it.It's the end of the world as we know it.It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.

It's the end of the world as we know it.It's the end of the world as we know it. (It's time I had some time alone)It's the end of the world as we know it (It's time I had some time alone) and I feel fine.(I feel fine)

Themes:The end of the world, chaos and destruction

Concept:"Its the end of the world, and I feel fine". The concept of this MEP is to be fun, lighthearted, and possibly even comical (while still focusing on chaos and destruction). So fell free to use the most over the top anime scenes that you can think of.

Motivation:I want everyone to have as much fun as possible while working on their track.

Track DetailsI decided to combine tracks 1 and 7 due to the very long fade out at the end. Also, this gives me the opportunity to try and give the MEP a overarching concept. Like what was done in the http://www.animemusicvideos.org/video/184603

*Please do not leave any additional footage before or after your track. A lot of MEPs require that you have about 2-3 seconds of footage at both ends, but it will not be necessary for this MEP. The video that you send should be the exact length of your track.

Anime Details*Each editor is allowed to use up to 5 different anime series*Multiple editors are allowed to use the same anime*Editors that use the same anime should communicate with each other in order to prevent them from using the same scenes.

I always thought that 864 x 480 was the standard resolution, but a lot of people use 848 since resizing to it usually causes a aspect ratio error of 0.62% (as apposed to resizing to 864 which causes a aspect of 1.25%). But I've always just resized to 880 x 496 (which causes a aspect ratio error of 0.2%), and then cropped by 8 on each side to produce a 864 x 480 result. This crop also takes care of the black borders that appear around DVD footage.

Am I the only one that does this? Would everyone like me to change the requirement to 848?

It has been brought to my attention that my render settings are a bit unorthodox, so for now, I'll have the project requirement be 848 x 480. This is subject to change though. It has also been brought to my attention that some people may prefer the project to be HD. Once all the tracks are full, I'll ask everyone's opinion on the matter.

I have an idea for an outro that uses a cover of the original song, but I'm not completely sure yet. what do you guys think of using the first 60 seconds of this song as the outro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-5oGnvfUEU

Ah, nuts! I appreciate you sending the email before this thread was made though, kire. ;3; I just haven't been on in awhile so I missed the opportunity. :cBut in any case, I really look forward to this! (And if you need any backup editors for anything, I'd still be interested!) This MEP is gonna be awesome!

I started my track!Now that I'm a few seconds in I think what I had in mind will definitely work

What I'm curious about though is how this google spreadsheet thing works Do/Can we somehow edit it for our updates and beta linking? Or will we be sending you any updates per PM and you're to change the sheet?
